Palestinians are “true owners of the land” who were forced out by “Zionist gangs”

Headline: “The Nakba and the Intilaqa anniversary as seen by senior officials"
“’48 is no more than a number, yet it has changed the face of history. Since the Nakba (i.e., ‘the catastrophe,’ Palestinian term for the establishment of the State of Israel) it’s been etched on Palestinian skulls in disgusting black, because the uprooting and refugee phenomenon took place in 1948. But is it fate or an attempt to rectify history that the Palestinian revolution and the Fatah movement are celebrating 48 years since the Intilaqa (i.e., the ‘Launch’, term referring to the 1965 start of Fatah terror attacks) just after achieving statehood at the UN?
